Secondary battery
A first aspect of the present application provides a secondary battery comprising a positive electrode tab, a negative electrode tab, a separator, and an electrolyte, wherein
The positive electrode plate comprises a positive electrode active material, wherein the positive electrode active material comprises a core and a coating, and the manganese content of the core is more than or equal to 25 percent based on the weight of the core; the coating is coated on the surface of the inner core and comprises one or more of oxides, hydroxides or oxysalts of an element X, wherein the element X is selected from one or more of Al, B or P, and the weight ratio of the coating to the inner core is 1:5-100, and can be 1:16-100;
the electrolyte comprises a first solvent selected from one or more of a fluorocarbonate, a fluorocarboxylate, a fluorosulfone, a fluoroether, or a fluorobenzene.
In the secondary battery described herein, the positive electrode active material includes a core and a coating material coated on the surface of the core, wherein the weight ratio of the coating material to the core is 1:5-100. The proper weight ratio of the coating and the inner core is beneficial to ensuring that the coating effectively reduces direct contact between the inner core material and the electrolyte, thereby reducing interface side reaction, improving storage performance and cycle performance of the secondary battery, and avoiding deterioration of dynamic performance of the secondary battery due to excessive coating. In addition, the coating is also a fast ion conductor, and the capacity of the whole positive electrode active material is not obviously reduced, so that the high energy density of the secondary battery is facilitated. In addition, the electrolyte in the secondary battery comprises the first solvent selected from the fluorinated solvents, which is beneficial to improving the fluorinated degree of the electrolyte, improving the compatibility of the electrolyte with the anode and the cathode, reducing the damage of the electrolyte to the anode and the cathode materials, and further improving the storage performance and the cycle performance of the secondary battery.
In some embodiments, optionally, the positive electrode sheet has a manganese ion dissolution coefficient k less than or equal to 0.035%, optionally k less than or equal to 0.017%, and more optionally k less than or equal to 0.01%, where the manganese ion dissolution coefficient refers to the weight percentage of manganese ions in the electrolyte after the positive electrode sheet in a fully charged state is stored at 60 ℃ for 48 hours with the electrolyte (electrolyte injection coefficient of 5 g/Ah).
When the manganese ion dissolution coefficient of the positive electrode sheet meets the conditions, the interface stability of the positive electrode can be obviously improved, the interface side reaction is reduced, the stability of the secondary battery is improved, and the storage performance and the cycle performance of the secondary battery are further improved.
In some embodiments, optionally, the static protection layer stability factor of the positive electrode sheet is 54% or less than or equal to e1 or less than or equal to 100%, optionally 70% or less than or equal to e1 or less than or equal to 100%, and more optionally 85% or less than or equal to e1 or less than or equal to 100%, where the static protection layer stability factor refers to a ratio of a content of element X remaining in a positive electrode film layer to a content of element X included in the positive electrode film layer when the positive electrode sheet is in an initial full-charge state after the positive electrode sheet is stored at 60 ℃ for 48 hours together with the electrolyte.
The stability coefficient e1 of the static protective layer can better reflect the degree of the element X in the positive electrode film layer dissolved into the electrolyte. When the stability coefficient of the static protection layer meets the above conditions, the secondary battery is favorable to have good stability, and the storage performance and the cycle performance of the secondary battery are improved.
It should be noted that, after the secondary battery is used for a period of time, if the content of the element X in the positive electrode film layer at the initial full charge state of the secondary battery is not known in advance, the obtaining of the static protection layer stability coefficient e1 becomes difficult. Alternatively, the dynamic protective layer stability factor e2 can be used to measure the rate at which element X in the positive electrode film dissolves into the electrolyte. The larger the dynamic protective layer stability coefficient e2 is, the smaller the dissolution rate of the element X in the positive electrode film layer into the electrolyte is, which indicates that the stability of the secondary battery is better; conversely, the greater the dissolution rate, the poorer the stability of the secondary battery.
In some embodiments, optionally, the dynamic protection layer stability factor of the positive electrode sheet is 20% or less than or equal to e2 and less than or equal to 100%, optionally 50% or less than or equal to e2 and less than or equal to 100%, and more optionally 70% or less than or equal to e2 and less than or equal to 100%, and the dynamic protection layer stability factor refers to a ratio of a content of element X remaining in a positive electrode film layer after the positive electrode sheet in a full charge state is stored at 60 ℃ for 48 hours together with the electrolyte, to a content of element X included in the positive electrode film layer before the above storage.
When the dynamic protection layer stability coefficient e2 is within the above range, the secondary battery has better stability, which is beneficial to improving the storage performance and the cycle performance of the secondary battery.
In general, a secondary battery includes a positive electrode tab, a negative electrode tab, an electrolyte, and a separator. During the charge and discharge of the battery, active ions are inserted and extracted back and forth between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate. The electrolyte plays a role in ion conduction between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate. The isolating film is arranged between the positive pole piece and the negative pole piece, and mainly plays a role in preventing the positive pole piece and the negative pole piece from being short-circuited, and meanwhile ions can pass through the isolating film.

At 25 ℃, charging the lithium ion battery to an upper limit cutoff voltage with a constant current of 0.1C, then charging the lithium ion battery to a current of less than 0.05C with the constant voltage, and then discharging the lithium ion battery to a lower limit cutoff voltage with 0.1C to obtain a discharge capacity C (Ah).
2. Manganese ion dissolution coefficient and protective layer stability coefficient test

For the other parallel sample, the positive electrode plate is taken out by a similar method, then added into electrolyte (the composition is shown in table 1) corresponding to 5g/Ah, sealed and placed in a 60 ℃ oven for standing for 48h. And then taking out the corresponding electrolyte in a glove box, then carrying out element content component test, measuring the weight content of manganese ions (manganese elements) in the electrolyte, and dividing the weight of the electrolyte by the weight of the electrolyte to obtain the weight percentage content of the manganese ions (manganese elements) in the electrolyte as y1. Correspondingly, soaking the stored positive electrode plate with dimethyl carbonate for 1h for 3 times (the dimethyl carbonate is replaced immediately for another soaking after the single soaking is completed), and then drying and then carrying out element content test to obtain the content of element X in the positive electrode film layer as X2 by weight. The manganese ion elution coefficient k=y1 of the secondary battery and the protection layer stability coefficient e=x2/x 1.
The static protection layer stability factor e1 and the dynamic protection layer stability factor e2 can be measured by the method for measuring the protection layer stability factor, and the difference is that: the secondary battery used in measuring the static protection layer stability factor e1 is a freshly prepared secondary battery, and the secondary battery used in measuring the dynamic protection layer stability factor e2 is not limited, and may be a freshly prepared secondary battery or a secondary battery after a period of use. The present examples and comparative examples were tested for freshly prepared secondary batteries, and thus the protective layer stability factor in table 1 was the static protective layer stability factor e1.
The manganese ion content in the electrolyte and the manganese element and element X content in the positive electrode film layer are tested by adopting an inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry, wherein the instrument standard is referred to EPA6010D-2014, the inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, JY/T015-1996, the inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry general rule.

In addition, 6 small wafer positive electrode plate substrates (aluminum substrates) with the radius of 7mm are taken, and the mass of the substrate is measured to be m3. The corresponding X element content is x1=m2/(m 1-m 3).
When the element X is aluminum, the method for testing the X content in the positive electrode active material is slightly different, the active material on the surface of the electrode sheet needs to be scraped (note that the aluminum substrate cannot be scraped), the mass of the scraped mixture is measured as m4, and then the mass of X in the mixture is measured as m2 by adopting the same method. The content of the corresponding X element (Al) is m2/m4.
The method for testing the manganese ion content in the electrolyte comprises the following steps: about 1g of the electrolyte is takenAdding 10ml of concentrated HNO into the solution 3 Acid (68% by mass) was then heated at 180 ℃ for 30min, and then the volume was fixed with deionized water to 50ml. And testing the solution by adopting an inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry, and finally measuring to obtain the content of manganese ions (manganese elements) in the electrolyte by weight, wherein the content of the manganese ions (manganese elements) in the electrolyte by weight is y1 after dividing the content by the mass of the electrolyte.
3. Positive electrode active material gram Capacity test

Initial discharge gram capacity (mAh/g) of the positive electrode active material=initial discharge capacity of the secondary battery/total mass of the positive electrode active material.
4. Cycle performance test of secondary battery
Charging the secondary battery at a constant current of 0.1C to an upper limit cutoff voltage at 45 ℃, and then charging the secondary battery at a constant voltage to a current of 0.05C; after standing for 5min, the secondary battery was discharged to a lower limit cutoff voltage at a constant current of 0.1C, which is a charge-discharge cycle process, and the discharge capacity at this time was the initial discharge capacity of the secondary battery. And (3) circularly charging and discharging the secondary battery according to the method until the discharge capacity after circulation is reduced to 80% of the initial discharge capacity, ending the test, and recording the circle number of the secondary battery at the moment. The higher the number of cycles of the secondary battery, the longer the cycle life expectancy of the secondary battery.
5. Secondary battery storage performance test
The secondary battery was charged at a constant current of 0.1C to an upper limit cutoff voltage at 25C, and then charged at a constant voltage to a current of 0.05C at the cutoff voltage, at which time the secondary battery was in a full charge state. Placing the secondary battery in a full charge state in an environment of 25 ℃ for storage, taking out once every 5 days, and discharging to a lower limit cut-off voltage with a constant current of 0.1C to obtain the discharge amount after being stored for a period of time; and then the secondary battery is fully charged in the mode and then is stored in the environment of 25 ℃ again until the discharge capacity of the secondary battery after being stored is reduced to 80% of the initial discharge capacity, the test is finished, and the total storage days of the secondary battery are recorded. The more days of storage of the secondary battery, the longer the expected life of the secondary battery in room temperature storage.
In each of the above performance tests, the upper limit cutoff voltage was 4.95V and the lower limit cutoff voltage was 3.0V in the examples and comparative examples. The results of the performance tests of examples 1-20 and comparative examples 1-3 are shown in Table 1.
As can be seen from table 1, when the positive electrode active material contains the coating material and the first solvent is contained in the electrolyte, the storage performance and the cycle performance of the corresponding secondary battery are both superior to those of the secondary battery that does not contain the coating material or that does not contain the first solvent.
